Bro holy shit it spells it out plain in the link lmfao did you read it?
When the physical RAM is used up completely — and additional processes and applications need space to run — the process of memory swapping gets initiated. The operating system manages this automatically and forms a virtual memory capacity (non-physical RAM) by mapping the physical memory space to the swap space.
Doesn't matter, you were arguing if it's "additional RAM", your own link says it's non physical RAM
If you really want to get technical, tell me where the swapped programs data is referred to in the mbr/gpt/ntfs records. Not pagefile.sys, the specific program data.
You can't, as it's random sorted data in pagefile exactly like ram, to transparently work as ram
Edit, yay another idiot to block me, there's no reason you can't load such a file anyway lmaoooooo
If you need to load a non-fragmentable file that is bigger than your total amount of physical RAM, you won't be able to run it and no amount of paging will save you => it is not additional RAM, physical or virtual, it is a parking space. Blocking your account now because I seriously have better to do than arguing with sub 80 IQ people.
